8. Service Offered DLAs Directed Learning Activities
A directed learning activity (DLA) is a set of exercises a student completes in order to improve a specific writing skill. DLAs are great because they cut to the chase of the issue you want to work on; there's nothing in a DLA unrelated to what you want to improve. Students looking to improve specific areas of their writing should consider the Writing Center's DLAs. Also, some students may be asked by their professors to come to the Writing Center to complete specific DLAs.
Once you've decided which DLA to work on, simply print out the information (see below) for the DLA you've chosen and begin. If you prefer, you can complete your work on the Word document. Or, if you come into the Center to complete your DLA, we can provide all the materials for you. Some DLA activities can be completed entirely from home, while others will require you to use some of the software in the Writing Center. If your DLA requires you to use our software, just remember to check our hours before coming in.
Once all activities in a DLA are complete, you will meet with a Writing Center tutor to make sure that you're on the right track. You can either schedule an appointment with a Writing Center tutor (at the WC Online website) or come into the Writing Center and place your name on the DLA Walk-In List in our computer lab. The tutor will look over your work and review any parts of the activities that might be improved. Please note that both the activities and meeting with a tutor are required to complete a DLA; not one or the other.
